TWO LOVERS:
) : : ROBERT AND PELLONIA.
m*rzmmw
“Two lovers by a moss-grown spring:
They leaned soft cheeks together
there,
Mingled the dark and sunny hair,
And heard the wooing thrushes
sing.”
That was many years ago at a
country &chool house in Cobb County
when Robert Anderson and Pellonia
Butner were two small children just
beginning their acquaintance with
Noah Webster's blue-back speller.
Robert was a good boy who always
loved to play with girls; a gentle, re
fined, happy-hearted child, with beau
tiful blue eyes in which smiles were
at home. Pellonia was a high-gpirited,
ambitious little girl with a round,
dimpled face and a wealth of wavy
dark auburn hair. This boy and girl
went together to school, spelled the
same lessons, read the same wonder
ful lines, solved the same problems,
studied the same histories and conju
gated the verb to love from their first
days in school until their last, and
when school days were over the two
were married and lived together more
than fifty years. Many lovers are
married but do not live together,
shoulder to shoulder, heart to heart,
keeping step and looking into each
others eyes with tender confidence.
But Robert and Pellonia were lovers
all their lives. They had many crods
es and sorrows. War carried the
stalwart young husband away from
his home, leaving three little children
to comfort their sorrowing mother.
The youngest died and was shrouded
in a part of the mother’s bridal robe
as nothing suitable could be found in
the stores.
Eight children grew up and were'@
married except one son who died in|
his youth One lovely deughter died, |
after a short married life, leaviag no|
children. Their eldest son also died.
in a tragic railway accident a few |
years ago, ,
Four ddughters and one son, who
was the baby and the pride of hisl
mother’s heart, survive them. l
A few summers ago all the childrenr
of this devoted couple surprised their |
parents by assembling at their home.
in Douglasville to celebrate their |
golden wedding. The bride had saved
the table and table-cloth on which her
wedding supper had been served and
both were used on this occasion.l
Alter that they made a journey to
Savannah and spent a winter, Thef
honeymoon of their youth had never|
waned or grown dim. !
On a lovely Sabbath in May about‘
three years ago Robert’s blue eyes |
closed and he whispered a last fare
well to his beloved companion. A few!
weeks ago, when spring had come in
Savannah, the sad heart of Pellonia
failed and faltered and, looking up
with a happy smile, she said: ‘I am
Lso glad you have come, Robert, and
‘that the war is over.”’
- Then her eyes closed, her heart
'rested and peace fell upon her like a
beautiful white veil,
! And now these life long lovers rest
| beside each other near the o'd homes
~where their lives began and every one
(who knew them recalls their bene
ficent deeds, their smiling faces,
' their brave hearts, their pure lives and
| memories fall like the petals of fra
| grant flowers upon their graves.
